What is the difference of Amalgation and Merger?
Now a days a lot of acaquisitions and mergers takes place in india and abroad. A lot of bank mergers are reportedly on the news. In this back ground, tell me what is the difference in the accounting point of view
Amalgamation or Consolidation is the act of merging many things into one. In business, it often refers to the mergers or acquisitions of many smaller companies into much larger ones. The financial accounting term of consolidation refers to the aggregated financial statements of a group company as consolidated account. The taxation term of consolidation refers to the treatment of a group of companies and other entities as one entity for tax purposes.
Merger
Mergers are a tool used by companies for the purpose of expanding their operations and increasing their profit.
Usually mergers occur in a consensual setting where executives from the target company help those from the purchaser in a due diligence process to ensure that the deal is beneficial to both parties. Acquisitions can also happen through a hostile takeover by purchasing the majority of outstanding shares of a company in the open market against the wishes of the target's board. In the United States, business laws vary from state to state whereby some companies have limited protection against hostile takeovers. One form of protection against a hostile takeover is the shareholder rights plan, otherwise known as the "poison pill".
